Somethings seem normal but they aren't. Somethings come very cheap but money can't buy them. I'm just imagining myself being deaf in a country like naija and from humble background. Nature isn't fair to some people,while the ones that never have health challenges still complain so much. Thank you Almighty God.

The deafness could be reversed if only she has access to funds or a reliable ngo who can assist her. There's a serving governor in one of the middle belt states whose condition is even worse that that of a lawyer but can hear clearly via an hearing aid...same with one of his sons. Congrats to her

Being born with disability isn't an option for failure
I know a sister who got blind at age 10
What she had deficient in the eye sight,she was immensely blessed with her other sense organs.you will never know she is blind.tell her one thing,it will stick in her memory like glue
One thing I so much like about her-whatever she puts her mind in to do or accomplish,even if Jesus comes down to tell her it can't be done,she no go gree ooo
Even when my dad was telling her to learn a trade as she blind,she said Lai Lai,she must go university,.she went and came out with 2.1
Went for computer training after service and now works in a federal govt parastatal.
She is to me,a true definition of an achiever even with disability

Meet The Nigerian Lady Who Made Second Class Upper In UI Law School Despite Being Deaf


Fate dealt a cruel blow on Prosphen Okiemute Dumi in Senior Secondary School 1 when she suddenly became deaf.

Dumi, who is still yet to understand what actually led to her deafness, tried all she could, spiritually and medically, to reject the unsolicited offer of deafness, but all her efforts did not yield result.

Narrating her story, she said, “I don’t know up till now. The deafness just came suddenly. I don’t know why I’m deaf”.

Just like any other human who cannot control what fate has to offer, she accepted her cross and forged ahead.

But due to her condition, she had to withdraw from the conventional school she was attending to join the Christian Mission School for the Deaf located at Plot 78, Commercial Reservation, Onireke, Ibadan where she had to learn how to adjust to her new life.

Being a very brilliant girl, it was not difficult for her to learn sign language which is a core course for deaf students. When she showed excellent performance, the school management allowed her to be in SS3 and she distinguished herself later when she sat for the West African Senior School Certificate Examination.

As an indigent student, fate, this time, was lenient with her. She applied for a scholarship which she got.

Dumi applied for admission into the University of Ibadan (UI) which she got without much difficulty.

Again, she displayed uncommon brilliance in the Faculty of Law of UI as she graduated with Second Class Upper Division. Then, another hurdle threatened her dream as the Law School in Lagos did not have provision for interpreter who would determine her success there.

Luckily, she got another scholarship which provided an interpreter.

At the Christian Mission School for the Deaf, her alma mater, she was celebrated being the first alumnus to achieve the feat of becoming a lawyer in the school.

She used the opportunity to encourage other students in the school not to lose faith and focus in their life ambitions.

Thank God I'm not deaf, but if I we're deaf, I would have gotten a first class rather than 2'1. No fool to shout in my ear.

Some Nigerians like shouting into peoples ear. They should go to hell where their fellow shouters are shouting.
